Is Coronavirus in the Bible? Are pandemic plagues predicted in the Bible?

Pandemics are not new to modern times. Mankind has suffered pestilence and plague throughout history. For a quick refresher, read about the Biblical Plagues of Egypt. Some Christians are pointing to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse in Revelation 6 as proof of the Coronavirus in the Bible.

Revelation 6:8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.

Jeremiah 29:17 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “I will send against them sword, famine, and plague, and I will make them like rotten figs, so bad that they cannot be eaten.

Ezekiel 5:12 A third of your people will die by plague or be consumed by famine within you, a third will fall by the sword outside your walls, and a third I will scatter to every wind and unleash a sword behind them.
